I have a confession.... I do not like APPLE PIE.... I know, I know.... I'm unAmerican.... I've heard it all!
Regardless, I've found these fabulous, mini apple pies in mason jars that I'd love to make! They're so adorable and I think they'd look great at each table setting for the holidays, as well as, fantastic decor or favors for fall and winter wedding receptions!
I found this fabulous idea at Pure Wow!

Mini Mason Jar Apple Pies Are Adorable and Delicious

Cutest. Dessert. Ever.

MAKES 6 MINI PIES

START TO FINISH: 1 HOUR 15 MINUTES

INGREDIENTS

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 Honeycrisp apples, peeled and chopped (or other baking apple, such as Granny Smith or McIntosh)

½ cup brown sugar

3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons cinnamon

½ teaspoon ginger

½ teaspoon cloves

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

2 packages store-bought pie dough (4 circles total)

1 egg

1 tablespoon water

1½ teaspoons turbinado sugar

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Have ready six ¼ pint (½ cup) mason jars on a baking sheet.

2. In a large sauté pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the apples and sauté until nearly tender, 4 to 5 minutes.

4. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough until it is flat and slightly thinner than it originally was. Cut the dough into six 3-inch circles and six 2-inch circles.

5. Press a 3-inch circle into a mason jar, pressing it firmly to the base and sides and taking care not to poke holes in the dough. Trim any excess from the top edge with a paring knife. Repeat with the remaining 3-inch circles and jars.

6. Scoop the cooled filling into the pastry-lined jars, mounding it about ½ inch over the top rim.

7. Place the 2-inch rounds over the filling and tuck the edges under so they meet the edge of the jar. Crimp the edges with your fingers or a fork. Chill the pies for 10 minutes.

8. While the pies chill, whisk the egg and water together to combine. Brush the egg wash over each pie top, and then sprinkle the top of each with ½ teaspoon turbinado sugar. Cut small vents into the top of each pie with a paring knife.

9. Bake until the pies are golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.

That lost time of my life when I left life as I knew it behind and entered into my lost world... The world of being disabled... I didn't know what to do with myself. It felt as if time had suddenly stopped for me and I didn't know what to or where to turn....
I found blogging!
I always loved my blogs. My personal journey I shared with strangers. I especially enjoyed review blogging and running giveaways. Fun for me and my followers! That's where I find myself now... After spreading my wings and learning and exploring a new way of reviewing through Amazon...
Now, I will merge it all and it is my hope that I can share it all as before, benefitting us all in some way....

This
worked well for me for many years - it's a simple, weed-free way to
grow lettuce, spinach and even radishes. Take a 2 cubic feet bag of
potting soil (I used Miracle Grow),
rumple it around quite a bit to loose the soil, poke quite a few holes
in the back side for drainage, then lay the bag on a smooth surface that
will allow drainage and not get too hot, and cut out the top, leaving
about a 4 or 5 inch border all around. Lightly rake through the soil to
even it out and loosen it even more, then carefully, and evenly
sprinkle the seeds around. I put my salad green seeds in an old spice
bottle with large shaker holes, added some cornmeal, shook it all up to
mix well and sprinkled them out of it. I put the cornmeal in there to
allow me to see that I had covered the soil evenly. If doing radish
seeds or spinach, just make lines the depth mentioned on the seed pack,
plant the seeds and cover appropriately. For salad greens I sprinkled a
lite covering of soil over the cornmeal and seeds and then spray-misted
to water them in. I put my bags on metal sawhorses and grates to make
them waist level. This kept the bags off the hot concrete and I didn't
have to bend over when cutting my salad. When harvesting, just use a
pair of scissors and cut what you need - don't pull the plants out.
Same goes for spinach - they will grow back almost magically overnight,
and you can't tell where you cut. Spray mist the seeds and plantlings
at first when watering, until they are established, then you can water
more vigorously as the plants mature. You will probably need to water
more often, since the depth of the bags are not as deep as a regular
in-ground garden. I just kept mine moist, but not sopping wet.

1. Moisturizer – simply scoop some out of the jar and apply all over your body, including neck and face. 2. Eye cream – apply under the eyes to reduce puffiness, bags, and wrinkles. Use on the lids in the evening. 3. Preshave – coconut oil will prep skin for the pending damage caused by shaving. 4. Aftershave – coconut oil will help heal your skin after shaving without clogging pores.
5. Deodorant – coconut oil alone can be used as a deodorant, but even
more effective in combination with cornstarch/arrowroot powder and
baking soda! 6. Hair Conditioner/Deep Treatment – use as a leave in
hair conditioner by applying a teaspoon of coconut oil to your ends and
then running your fingers through your hair to distribute the rest! For a
deeper treatment, rub in a tablespoon of coconut oil onto your dry
scalp and gently work through to the ends. Put a shower cap on to
prevent transfer onto bed linens and leave on overnight. 7. Hair
Gel/Defrizzer – rub a little between your palms and either scrunch into
hair (for curly hair) or finger comb in through from scalp to ends (for
wavy/straight hair). 8. Toothpaste – there are numerous recipes out
there but I just mix coconut oil and baking soda and dab a little of the
mix on my toothbrush. 9. Make up remover – use a cotton swab and a dab of coconut oil and you would be amazed at how well it works!
10. Chapstick – just rub a little into lips and it not only acts as a
softening agent but it also has an SPF of about 4 so you get a little
protection! 11. Massage Oil – pretty simple; grab some and rub! 12. Lubricant – it is an all natural, perfectly safe personal lubricant. Not compatible with latex! 13. Sunscreen – see my post on natural sunscreen for more detailed information.
14. Stretch Mark Cream – coconut oil is great at nourishing damaged
skin. It may not be the magic stretch mark cure but it will help.
15. Nipple Cream – works great to nourish cracked, sore, or dry nipples.
Apply to a cotton ball and leave on your nipples between feedings. 16. Diaper salve – very comforting on a rashy bum with no harsh chemicals. Also safe for cloth diapers.
17. Cradle cap – having issues with dry skin on your baby’s scalp?
Coconut oil will not only nourish your baby’s skin, it also helps
eliminate cradle cap. Just rub a teaspoon onto scalp daily. 18. Body
scrub – mix coconut oil and sugar together and rub all over! Rinse off
and your skin will be super soft! You can add in essential oils if you
would like a specific smell. 19. Healing – when applied on scrapes
and cuts, coconut oil forms a thin, chemical layer which protects the
wound from outside dust, bacteria and virus. Coconut oil speeds up the
healing process of bruises by repairing damaged tissues. Plus, it smells
a heck-of-a-lot better than anything from the pharmacy. 20. Bug
Bites – when applied directly to a bug bite, coconut oil can stop the
itching and burning sensation as well as hasten the healing process. 21. Skin problems – coconut oil relieves skin problems such as psoriasis, dermatitis, and eczema.
22. Swimmers Ear – mix garlic oil and coconut oil and put a few drops
in affected ear for about 10 minutes. Do this 2-3 times a day and it
usually works within one or two days.

General Health and Wellness

23. Stress Relief – relieve mental fatigue by applying coconut oil to
the head in a circular, massaging motion. The natural aroma of coconuts
is extremely soothing thus helping to lower your stress level. 24.
Digestion – the saturated fats in coconut oil have anti-bacterial
properties that help control, parasites, and fungi that cause
indigestion and other digestion related problems such as irritable bowel
syndrome. The fat in coconut oil also aids in the absorption of
vitamins, minerals and amino acids, making you healthier all around.
25. Fitness – coconut oil has been proven to stimulate your metabolism,
improve thyroid function, and escalate energy levels, all of which help
decrease your unwanted fat, while increasing muscle. 26. Nose
bleeds – coconut oil can prevent nose bleeding that is caused by
sensitivity to weather such as extreme hotness and extreme coldness.
This condition happens when the nasal passages become dry because of
cold or dry air resulting to burns and cracks in the mucus membranes so
bleeding happens. To prevent this just put coconut oil in you nostrils.
Coat your finger with coconut oil and then lie down and coat your finger
inside your nose. Doing this will strengthen and protect the
capillaries in the nasal passages. A Vitamin C supplement will also help
prevent nose bleeding. 27. For breastfeeding moms, consuming 3 ½ tablespoons of coconut oil daily will enrich your milk supply. 28. Helps with weight loss & controlling cravings. 29. Helps keep blood sugar levels stable and/or helps with cravings in those with diabetes.

Health Problems: coconut oil is known for aiding, relieving, or even curing when taken internally

72. Insect repellent – mix coconut oil with peppermint oil extract and
rub it all over exposed skin. Keeps insects off better than anything
with Deet! Tons safer too. 73. Great for dogs and cats for general wellness. Just add a teaspoon to their water bowl daily.
74. Goo Gone – just mix equal parts coconut oil and baking soda into a
paste. Apply to the “sticky” area and let it set for a minute. Then
scrub off with an old toothbrush or the scrubby side of a sponge.
75. Chewing Gum in Hair Remover – just rub some coconut oil over the
stuck chewing gum, leave in for about 30 minutes, then roll the gum
between your fingertip. Voila! It’s out! 76. Polish Furniture –
coconut oil with a little bit of lemon juice to polish wood furniture.
However, I recommend you test it first on a very small, unobtrusive part
of your furniture to make sure it works the way you’d like. 77.
Polishing Bronze – all you have to do is rub a little oil into a cotton
towel and then wipe down the statue. It cleans and helps deepen the
color of your bronze. 78. Seasoning animal hide drums 79. Seasoning cookware 80. Moisturizing and cleaning leather products

Earaches
can be caused by a number of different things. Foreign matter or water
stuck within the ear canal can be a cause for infection, and
subsequently, the discomforts which are associated with earaches.
Earaches may also be caused by colds, fever, or even by lymphatic
infections. Generally more common in children than in adults, earaches
can sometimes be managed at home using all-natural remedies, the
majority of which can be found in your pantry or cupboard. Here are ten
great all-natural home remedies that can be found in your home kitchen,
cupboard, or pantry:
1. Hot compresses – one of the most
readily accessible remedies for earaches are hot compresses, which can
be done simply by dipping a tea towel in hot water and carefully
wringing out the excess. This can then be placed next to the affected
area, usually upon the side of the face, just behind the lower jaw.
Alternately, you can opt to use a hot water bottle for less hassle.
2. Herbal Poultices
– for a more potent and near-instantaneous relief of earaches, you can
opt to switch the hot compress with a hot herbal poultice made from a
combination of crushed ginger root, bruised nettle leaves, crushed
cinnamon bark, and bruised plantain leaves. These can be encased in
cheesecloth, steamed, and subsequently applied to the affected area as a
hot compress. It’s analgesic action acts faster than regular hot
compresses and helps to relieve pain more efficiently. Apply as often as
necessary, until the pain subsides.
3. Warm oil – warming
a good quality vegetable-based oil such as coconut oil, olive oil,
almond oil, jojoba oil until it’s warm to the touch and using a dropper
to trickle small amounts of the substance into the ailing ear should
readily cure an earache. It should be done preferably while you are
lying down. If doing this for children, soothing conversation which
coaxes them to keep still, and a firm hand to hold their heads in one
place might help to hasten the process.
Some have suggested to increase the medicinal benefits of this remedy
by adding a drop of peppermint essential oil, one drop of rosemary
essential oil, and one drop of oil of cloves to the warmed oil mixture,
as this is considered an excellent antimicrobial oil. If you do this,
ensure that only negligible amounts of essential oils are mixed
with the base oil, and that you use this remedy only sparingly. One to
two applications, a day apart from each other, is usually reported
enough to elicit the desired therapeutic effect.
4. Onions
– the juice of an onion, extracted by squeezing a whole onion through a
sieve or strainer and collecting the extruded substance, makes for an
excellent cure for earaches. You can simply siphon the onion juice in
minute amounts into the ailing ear, or otherwise trickle it slowly using
a funnel. It provides quick and lasting relief for nagging earaches.
5. Garlic – garlic
is an ancient herb reputed for its myriad healing capacities and its
powerful antimicrobial properties. As such, the juice of garlic, can,
like the juice of onions, be employed as a remedy for earaches by
employing it in a similar manner as you would the onion juice. In fact,
both the garlic and the onion juice may be employed in conjunction with
one another to elicit a more potent effect.
6. Ginger Root – ginger root
is a great cure-all spice to always have in your kitchen cupboard. A
natural antibacterial and analgesic, the juice extracted from ginger
root can be employed as an instant pain-remedy for earaches.
Alternatively, you can allow dried ginger root to macerate in oil, or
otherwise heat raw ginger in oil and allow the mixture to cool to a
tolerably warm temperature, and employ it as you would any oil-based
remedy. Drinking a strong cup of ginger tea should also help with the
pain management. When used in conjunction with the oil or juice remedy,
it should help treat earaches in less than a day. You can even opt to
combine the juice of ginger root, onions, and garlic for a more potent
remedy which requires only a trifling dose to elicit near-instantaneous
effects.
7. Licorice Root – a not-so-well-known earache
remedy, licorice root can make for an excellent balm for earaches,
especially recurring ones. To create an earache balm, warm some crushed
licorice root in your choice of a base, whether it be shea butter,
beeswax, cacao butter, or a mixture of any of the following, over a
double boiler for ten to fifteen minutes; allow the infusion to cool and
afterwards apply the mixture around the affected area and within the
inner ear (but do not push into the ear canal), until sufficient relief
is felt. Apply as often as needed until the pain disappears completely.
You may increase the therapeutic properties of the balm by incorporating
ground or sliced ginger into the mix for added anti-inflammatory and
analgesic benefits.
8. Mullein – mullein is a traditional
remedy for earaches employed since the Middle Ages, although its usage
has somewhat dwindled with the advent of modernity. Because most of the
mullein available in herbal stores and apothecaries nowadays are the
dried variety, allowing it to macerate in an oil, which can then be kept
for emergency purposes, should be kept on hand. If caught in a pinch,
you can opt to heat dried mullein in your choice of base oil over a
double boiler and allow it to cook sufficiently prior to application.
You may also brew a very potent decocted reduction of mullein in apple
cider vinegar, after which it can be applied directly to the affected
area through the use of a funnel or a dropper. Mullein is a natural
antimicrobial herb, which can help to prevent infections, thus avoiding
complications.
9. Calendula – the oil of calendula or a
maceration of calendula in apple cider vinegar (or any type of vinegar,
the former being more preferred for its mild acidity) makes for a good
earache remedy, especially if employed for mild earaches. Because
calendula is a very mild (albeit highly powerful) herb, it is the prime
choice for treating earaches in small children and in infants.
10. Ear Candles and Moxa
– while this alternative remedy has mixed opinions when it comes to its
efficiency, it must be noted that ear candles can also be employed as a
remedy for earaches, and is often employed in Eastern alternative
medicine shops, however, because its efficiency can be somewhat
unreliable, its usage is left to your discretion. An alternative (and
possibly more effective) means to treat earache is to employ moxibustion
– a Traditional Japanese Herbal Medicinal practice that is similar to
the practice of ear candles – wherein a practitioner burns a cylinder of
sage placed into the ear’s orifice as one would incense, to elicit
therapeutic benefits. Again, the employment of such remedies should be
left to your discretion, as any of the given remedies above (with the
exception of the tenth) should suffice for the alleviation of earaches.

As
always, this is not medical advice and not substitution for
consultation with a medical professional. With the exception of the use
of base oils and the employment of poultices, caution should be used
when using herbs or spices to treat earaches, as some individuals may be
allergic to certain kinds of herbs or spices. It should also be noted
that if an earache is serious or persists for more than three days, it
is best to seek expert medical help to avoid the possibility of
infections or complications. Likewise, when a ringing of the affected
area is experienced, or if difficulties in hearing are observed, you
should immediately seek professional help.
